The sum of all the measurements is just the average times the number.

\bar x = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n x_i

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = n \bar x

So if the average of all 92 is 7 the sum of those is 92 \times 7

The average of the last two is 7.2 so their sum is 2 \times 7.2

That means the sum of the first 90 is 92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2

so the average of the first 90 is

 \dfrac{92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2}{90} = 6.99556 cm

Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form Slope=-4 Point=(2,-4)
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

y=2x-8

or

f(x)=2x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

To write in slope-intercept form using this information, first use the point slope formula.

y-y1=m(x-x1)

m is slope.

y+4=2(x-2)

Use distributive property on the right side.

y+4=2x-4

Now, subtract 4 from both sides.

y+4-4=2x-4-4

y=2x-8

Written using function notation:

f(x)=2x-8

Hope this helps!

If not, I am sorry.
